Crazy Long!

Hi Folks,

Just wondering if any of you have an interesting story of a shot, with any club, that traveled MUCH further than it ever should have?

Last Friday I played at a local course and stepped up to a 340 yd. Par 4. I pulled out my 19 degree hybrid Titleist, teed the ball, took a smooth swing and watched as the ball just rocketed up and down the fairway. I knew it was a good shot, but I had no idea just how good it actually was.

I got in my cart and drove down to around to where my ball should be (220-230 yds down the fairway) and it was no where in sight. :hmm: As I looked around a little in the edge of the rough a ball caught my eye that was a good 30 to 40 yds ahead of me. I thought to myself "NO WAY", but I had yet to find my ball where I thought it should be, so I got in my cart and drove down to where this ball was. Sure enough it was my Pro V at only what looked like 40 yards from the green. I stepped it off and sure enough I had driven that ball over 280 yds with a 19 degree hybrid club. This is longer than I normally hit my driver. lol.... Well to end this story I flubbed my pitch shot and two putted for par, but that monster hit with made my day. I'm quite sure it was due to my hooding the club or de-lofting it unknowingly, but whatever it was I wish I could produce it on command. LOL.

Anyone else have a CRAZY LONG story?
